DARLENE
LOVE
DARLENE LOVE, THE MOST HEARD VOICE IN THE 60`S AND ONE
OF PHIL SPECTOR`S (BRICKS) IN THE "WALL OF SOUND".
HER REAL NAME IS DARLENE WRIGHT BUT PHIL RECHRISTENED
HER DARLENE LOVE. SHE AND HER GROUP, THE BLOSSOMS WERE PROBABLY THE
MOST IN DEMAND SESSION SINGERS AT THE TIME AND THEY ALSO RECORDED
MANY RECORDS AS THE BLOSSOMS,THE PLAYGIRLS, THE REBELETTES (WITH
DUANE EDDY), THE CRYSTALS, BOB B SOXX AND THE BLUEJEANS,THE
K-CETTES(WITH AL CASEY), THE WILD CATS AND MOOSE AND THE PELICANS AND
PROBABLY MORE THAN DARLENE HERSELF CAN REMEMBER.
(Jean King, Darlene Love, Fanita James)
JUST A SAMPLING OF HITS THAT DARLENE SANG BACKUP ON:
ROCKIN ROBIN - BOBBY DAY
CHAIN GANG - SAM COOKE
JOHNNY ANGEL - SHELLEY FABARES
MONSTER MASH - BOBBY(BORIS)PICKETT
THE SHOOP SHOOP SONG - BETTY EVERETTE
THE POOR SIDE OF TOWN - JOHNNY RIVERS
RUBBERNECKIN` - ELVIS PRESLEY
BASKETBALL JONES - CHEECH AND CHONG.
DARLENE WAS ALSO THE VOICE ALONG WITH BOBBY SHEEN ON
PHIL`S PSEUDO GROUP , BOB B SOXX AND THE BLUEJEANS WITH GREAT CHART
SUCCESS. AND SHE RECORDED FOR PHIL SPECTOR AS DARLENE LOVE WITH GREAT
RECORDS SUCH AS "TODAY I MET THE BOY I`M GOING TO MARRY" AND THE
FABULOUS "WAIT `TILL MY BOBBY GETS HOME" AND THE UNFORTUNATELY
WITHDRAWN "STUMBLE AND FALL". MANY AGREE THAT PHIL AND DARLENE LOVE`S
GREATEST ACHIEVEMENT WAS THE MASTERPIECE CHRISTMAS SINGLE "CHRISTMAS,
BABY PLEASE COME HOME".
DARLENE HAS RECENTLY WRITTEN A BOOK CALLED "MY NAME IS
LOVE"
